Edit going for The all season 4 after some thinking
Need opinions on this, I recently placed an order for apex ec7 wheels 18x10 et 40.
I jumped the gun and bought the Michelin all season 3+ in 285/35/18. A shorter tire and its on sale for 172 per tire.
I can trade up and get 285/40/18 which would keep Speedo within 1% vs the 5% at 285/35. And it would only be $250 more.
Or do I step up to the new Michelin all season 4 in a 275/40/18? It will keep the speedo within 2%. I'm giving up some tire contact, but maybe the new tire technology is worth it for about $440 more.
For comparisons

285/35/18 is 25.9"
